Fuel prices go up as Star Oil raises pump prices again; petrol sells for GH¢15 .57, diesel at GH¢ 18.97
Star Oil raised pump prices again, with petrol now selling for GH¢15.57 and diesel at GH¢18.97. This follows a previous adjustment on August 1, when petrol increased from GH¢14.47 to GH¢14.53 per litre and diesel from GH¢17.67 to GH¢18.77. The latest increase saw petrol move from GH¢14.53 to GH¢15.57 per litre, and diesel from GH¢18.77 to GH¢18.97 per litre.
Sources familiar with Star Oil's operations stated the latest adjustment was driven by current price movements on the international market. Industry players point to persistent volatility in global crude oil and refined petroleum product prices. Industry pricing trends indicate that diesel could soon approach GH¢19 per litre, with some projections suggesting it could reach GH¢19.20 if international prices continue their upward trajectory. Other Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) are expected to adjust their pump prices as well.
